What types of technical solutions does NAVWAR prioritize for procurement?

NAVWAR focuses on command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems, cloud computing, cybersecurity, and secure tactical networking solutions.

Are security clearances required for most NAVWAR contracts?

Yes, because NAVWAR manages sensitive defense and intelligence infrastructure, most prime contractors and key personnel require active Facility Security Clearances (FCL) and individual Secret or Top Secret clearances.

How can small businesses best position themselves for NAVWAR awards?

Small businesses should target NAVWAR's Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs, which are frequently used to fund early-stage development of high-tech naval solutions.
